Hi !
This is my first post guys so go gentle ! I have a lovely ES premium TD4 fLander on a 53 plate. It has 17" 3 pronged sports alloys, but does anyone know what other size wheels this model will accept as I've read contradicting reports about the rear brakes and how they mean that only certain alloys can be fitted. What should I be looking out for on Ebay that will fit ?
Can anyone out there clear this on up ? I'm just looking for some cheap wheels I can stick winter tyres on to make the whole swapping over job a lot easier !
Thanks in advance !

Hello Cartman.
My son's premium V6 has 17" Evolution alloys, recently I tried one of the 16" Freedom alloys from my TD4 on it and it fitted with clearance round the calliper. Whatever you buy just check carefully when you fit them.
Why do you want 'winter tyres' ? Are you moving to Switzerland? John.

Thanks for the advice everyone !
I'm not moving to Switzerland, but drive to ski resorts at least 3 times a year and some of the off the beaten track roads are a bit nasty at times and just wanted some reliable winter tyres I could bang on some spare alloys and save the aggro of swapping tyres each year.
Thanks again.
Mike
